Conservative Journalist Shares His Encounter With Sen. Dick Durbin And His “Unbiased” Media Pals

Chicago, August 11, 2011 – This week U.S. Senator Dick Durbin held a press conference with members of the mainstream media to talk about the downgrade crisis. But the Senator’s scripted storyline veered off-course when a conservative reporter – me – showed up to ask an embarrassing question. Namely, “Senator, you’ve blamed the tea party…but do you bear any responsibility for this downgrade crisis?” (Read more.)

B.S. Report–Wow, that’s some “adversarial” press Durbin has there. They’re almost like cronies at a cocktail party. The liberal press largely consists of human cockroaches who conduct their dirty business in the dark and scatter when you shine a light on them.

On those rare occasions when the curtain is pulled back you actually see them for what they are: A good ‘ole boys and girls network that tows the liberal company line. And Mr. Kelly found out what happens when you don’t–you’re given the bum’s rush before you even have a chance to do your job.

And anyway, how dare he ask a liberal politician to defend his statements! Does he think they’re “public servants” or something? No way–they’re our masters and we best not forget it. “Objective” mainstream journalism is now basically an arm of the Democratic Party. They are there to protect and provide cover for hapless Democrat pols like Durbin who can’t answer actual questions about his policies. But that’s understandable…there are no facts that support liberal policies.

In Don Marquis’ classic satirical book, “Archy and Mehitabel,” Mehitabel the alley cat asks plaintively, “What have I done to deserve all these kittens?”

That seems to be the pained reaction of the Obama administration to the financial woes that led to the downgrading of America’s credit rating for the first time in history.

There are people who see no connection between what they have done and the consequences that follow. But Barack Obama is not likely to be one of them. He is a savvy politician who will undoubtedly be satisfied if enough voters fail to see a connection between what he has done and the consequences that followed. (Read more.)

Pummeled by ghastly economic news, President Obama called Monday for more spending and extended tax cuts that he said would help stimulate the economy — but these also could deepen the deficit problems that helped the federal government earn its first-ever debt downgrade last week.

The president made the proposals as world stock market indexes were tumbling, and his remarks seemed designed to help the White House regain its political footing by resetting the congressional agenda next month. (Read more.)
